What Is Deepest In Your Heart

Double vodka greyhound
Haunting me always
Was it for you or for him?
You ordered it with such flamboyant style
Tipped the bartender an extravagant amount
As you swaggered away
But while you stood next to me
I took in all of your presence
No one has ever placed a close second
The very first time I saw you I knew
You were scheduled for greatness
No one else had such energy
Such explosive chemistry
Emanating from the very depths of your soul
What you had been through
That created such fervor in you
Or if born in such a tempest
That it simply came shattering through
My life was not quite the same
The remnants always remain
Slugging away at me from inside
And somehow I do not have all the pieces
I do not have the whole story of you
Something is hidden from my gaze
One thing that is the essence of you
I want to know your secret
What is deepest in your heart
That will put all things in balance
And never tear us apart
